This Thursday at Change, Jubal Harpster and Todd Slind will be presenting their work on AGCommons (http://www.agcommons.org). I met Jubal and Todd in Uganda a month and turns out they work in Fremont. AGCommons is a great idea to empower farmers and it should be a fun talk. AGCommons is an Africa-based service bureau providing location specific (geospatial) information technology services to extend the reach and impact of existing agricultural initiatives working to improve the productivity and incomes of smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa. AGCommons is driven by three goals. First, to discover how geospatial technology can improve farmer productivity and market access. Second, to engage a community of interest to improve sharing and accessibility for location-specific information and finally, to deliver high impact solutions that provide value to the “last 10 kilometers. What: Jubal Harpster and Todd Slind on AGCommons When: Thursday, December 3 at Noon Where: UW, Paul Allen Center, Room 403
